Description
The Aluminum Elite approaches the strength of steel and at a fraction of the weight (4.6), due to a precise forging process utilizing aircraft grade aluminum. The large frame, key lock nose, and substantial gate opening make the Elite ideal for rigging applications.
Built as the new workhorse for Fire, Industrial, Rescue, Safety and Tactical industries, the Elite is the world’s strongest D shaped NFPA 2500 (1983) certified aluminum carabiner. Rated to 45kN, this ‘biner weighs only 4.6 oz. almost 10% lighter than other G-Rated aluminum ‘biners and less than half the weight of steel carabiners. Whether you’re fighting fires, working at height, saving lives or in a combat zone, the Elite has you covered.
